Let's have a Pokémon thread on this Pokémon board that doesn't involve the fucking Nintendo Direct that we have all seen seven threads of already that has absolutely fucking nothing to do with Pokémon.

Post who your favorite 'mon is and explain why, and proclaim to every other Anon why their favorite is complete garbage.

I'll start.
My favorite is Swampert. It's got a nice looking design, and its Ground type allows for coverage against Electric types. It can also learn several moves that can protect it against Grass types. Also, its Mega looks cool, I like the way it bulks up.
